I saw that. At one point she was alone and just got on her bike! Did the Dutch woman think she’d won? Her celebration crossing the line kind of looked like she did?

Lizzie Deignant thought the Dutch had won, that’s what made me wonder.

Oh I’ve just seen on the BBC that Van Vleuten did think she’d won but realised her mistake straight away.

Yep, no radios and despite Chris Boardman saying the Dutch weren't chasing - I suspect they throught they were chasing the 2 ahead of them and didn't know or realise Anna was so far ahead.
I guess the absence or radios or team comms makes a big difference?
Or people need to count?

And I guess the lack of Dutch congrats was more they were more involved in their own 'how did we miss that' discussion.
